FOUNTAIN VALLEY, Calif., June 2, 2017 – The
award-winning Hyundai Santa Fe lineup continues to improve for the 2018
model year. Building upon major 2017 enhancements such as fresh exterior
design and LED lighting signatures to additional infotainment, safety
features and new Drive Mode selection, an all-new Value package on the
Santa Fe Sport delivers popular features at an exceptional value. The
2018 Santa Fe Sport is arriving at dealers now and the 2018 Santa Fe
models will be arriving early summer.

GENEROUS FEATURE CONTENTSanta
Fe offers a comprehensive list of standard features, including a
rearview camera, automatic on/off headlights, remote keyless entry with
alarm, bodycolor power side mirrors with driver’s blind spot mirror, LED
headlight accents, daytime running lights, steering-wheel-mounted audio
and cruise control and Bluetooth hands-free smartphone system. Premium
features such as HID Xenon headlights, panoramic sunroof, navigation and
an updated 12-speaker Infinity Logic7® audio system which features
QuantumLogic® Surround and Clari-Fi™ Music Restoration Technology are
available. Also available is Hyundai’s innovative power Hands-Free Smart
Liftgate with Auto Open, which makes it even easier for owners to gain
access to the cargo area whenever their hands are full. This system
makes it easy for the driver to keep both feet comfortably on the ground
by simply standing within a few feet of the rear bumper with the key
fob in a purse or pocket for a few seconds.

BLUE LINK® STANDARD SERVICESFor
2018, Hyundai is making a variety of services standard on all Blue
Link-equipped Santa Fe and Santa Fe Sport models. Blue Link Connected
Care, Remote and Guidance packages are now free for three years. Some of
these Blue Link services are now also accessible via smartphone,
smartwatch and virtual assistant devices like Amazon Alexa and Google
Home, such as Remote door lock, Remote Start with Climate Control,
Destination Search by Google® and the Monthly Vehicle Health Report.

Hyundai
is going above and beyond the competition by making all Blue Link
safety and security features like Automatic Collision Notification, SOS
Emergency Assistance and Stolen Vehicle Recovery standard to subscribers
as well. These important features include immediate access to the Blue
Link Emergency Response Center in the event of an accident, faster
connection to emergency services and 24/7, 365 days/year access to
emergency assistance via the dedicated SOS button. Blue Link can also
assist the police in locating and recovering a stolen vehicle.

In
addition to making the current features standard, Hyundai will tackle
the inconvenience of outdated map software by offering free downloads to
maintain up-to-date navigation programming on the system’s SD card via
the MyHyundai website. These complimentary updates also will be
available for three years as part of the Guidance Package.
